But after saying that, Xia Chujian hesitated again: "But what about the land we cultivate here? And the wild rhinoceros and phoenix-tailed pheasants we raise..."
Xia Yuanfang was also hesitating.
Her family now lives in Mulan City on Guiyuan Star, and has a small business.
All of this was accumulated bit by bit by the aunt and niece from scratch.
Moreover, Sanzong has invested a lot of effort in this land, so he can't just give up.
It was Xia Chujian who made the decision.
She said thoughtfully, "When you guys come over next year, I still have three years to graduate."
"According to the school system of the Empire's First Military Academy, we will be doing internships outside during our senior year and will not be in school anymore."
"So all in all, you only need to stay on Beichen Star for two years."
"For the past two years, I've let the land at home rest and not plant anything for the time being."
"The wild rhinoceros and phoenix birds raised in the Exotic Beast Forest are also kept for two years. They're not like ordinary animals; their meat doesn't become more tender with age."
"And leaving them for two years might be more conducive to sustainable development."
Xia Yuanfang is now somewhat accustomed to Xia Chujian making the decisions.
She used to be doing scientific research tasks.
She can make decisions on scientific research matters, but in other matters, she just follows orders.
Now that Xia Chujian was speaking logically, she agreed and said, "That's it."
"In the second half of the semester, you will still go to Beichen Star to study alone."
"But you don't have to come back during the summer vacation."
"Let's go find you together."
Xia Chujian said, "I hope Yingying can get into a university on Beichen Star, so we can be together for real."
Xia Yuanfang originally wanted to not push Chen Yingying too hard.
But in order for her to be able to come to Beichen Star and reunite with everyone, Xia Yuanfang decided that she should "push the seedlings to grow" a little bit...
…
In the following days, Xia Chujian and Xia Yuanfang told Aunt Chen, Yingying and Sanzong about their plans for next year.
Aunt Chen and Yingying were of course very happy, and they completely followed the opinions of Xia Chujian and Xia Yuanfang.
Sanrong was very conflicted.
He hesitated and said, "Of course San Zong wants to go to Beichen Star with Aunt Xia and Master Shaojun, but is the land here really no longer cultivated?"
"Everyone's food depends on these pieces of land..."
Xia Yuanfang wanted to say that their food rations might not necessarily depend on these pieces of land.
Ordinary rice on the market is also edible. Although it is a little more expensive than nutrient solution, with her and Xia Chujian's current income, they can provide food for a large family.
But the taste can't compare to the food grown by Sanrong.
But Xia Yuanfang felt it was acceptable to only eat it for two or three years.
But Xia Chujian said, "San Zong, the food we harvest now is enough for us to eat until next year."
"So we only need to harvest two more crops in the second half of this year and the first half of next year, and we'll have food for the year after next and the year after that."
"Stored meat, including wild rhinoceros, unicorn, and mullet, may need to be replenished."
“But it’s not like we won’t be back at all.”
"I have two holidays every year, winter and summer, and we all come back together to replenish our meat."
"As long as two years pass, you can come back."
"Because I will be leaving Beichen Star in my senior year, I don't know where to do my internship."
"For the next two years, we can just leave the land here uncultivated and let it rest and recuperate, right?"
San Zong's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes! Of course!"
"Although the land here is fertile, it would be better for the land if we could stop farming for two years!"
"Then how about this? The weather is too cold to farm outdoors now."
"Why don't we take all the reclaimed land and add greenhouses controlled by intelligent machines?"
"I've seen this kind of mechanically controlled greenhouse online. It can automatically open and close according to weather conditions, and it can also keep the room warm and moisturized. It's really useful!"
After saying that, San Zong said embarrassedly: "...It's just a little expensive."
Xia Chujian said proudly, "It doesn't matter! Land is our foundation. As long as we treat the land well, no matter how expensive it is, it's worth it!"
San Zong was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Master Shaojun, do you think so too?! I thought I was the only one who thought so!"
Then Xia Chujian began to plan with Sanzong how large an area would be needed for this greenhouse controlled by mechanical intelligence.
Then she contacted Baili Xin and asked if they could build a greenhouse controlled by mechanical intelligence for farming.
Baili Xin was very surprised when he heard this and said, "Ms. Xia, this kind of greenhouse is very expensive!"
"I've only done it once. It was for a wealthy man in the West District. He built a small greenhouse and planted some supposedly rare and valuable flowers in it!"
Xia Chujian thought to himself, which of the Dangkang Zhuyu rice and Chihua Jiarong wheat cultivated by Sanzong is not more valuable than those flowers and plants?!
She said casually: "It doesn't matter, just quote according to this area."
When Baili Xin saw the area, his eyes widened.
He knew the actual area of the manor that Xia Chujian owned.
Because he built the wall of the entire estate.
Although the entire estate covers an area of 20 hectares, because it contains lakes, mountains, and a lot of woodland, the actual arable land area is only 10 hectares.
Of the ten hectares, only three acres of arable land have been actually reclaimed.
One acre is used for breeding and two acres are used for farming.
